What do these changes do?

The event loop only keeps weak references to tasks, we need to hold a strong reference to ensure that the ping task is not prematurely garbage collected.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.create_task

In almost all cases the ping can be done synchronously if the task is created eagerly which avoids scheduling the ping task on the event loop.

Are there changes in behavior for the user?

no

Is it a substantial burden for the maintainers to support this?

no

Related issue number

Backport to 3.10: 💔 cherry-picking failed — conflicts found

❌ Failed to cleanly apply 0a88bab on top of patchback/backports/3.10/0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504/pr-8641

Backporting merged PR #8641 into master

  1. Ensure you have a local repo clone of your fork. Unless you cloned it
    from the upstream, this would be your origin remote.
  2. Make sure you have an upstream repo added as a remote too. In these
    instructions you'll refer to it by the name upstream. If you don't
    have it, here's how you can add it:
    $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp.git
  3. Ensure you have the latest copy of upstream and prepare a branch
    that will hold the backported code:
    $ git fetch upstream
    $ git checkout -b patchback/backports/3.10/0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504/pr-8641 upstream/3.10
  4. Now, cherry-pick PR Fix WebSocket ping tasks being prematurely garbage collected #8641 contents into that branch:
    $ git cherry-pick -x 0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504
    If it'll yell at you with something like fatal: Commit 0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504 is a merge but no -m option was given., add -m 1 as follows instead:
    $ git cherry-pick -m1 -x 0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504
  5. At this point, you'll probably encounter some merge conflicts. You must
    resolve them in to preserve the patch from PR Fix WebSocket ping tasks being prematurely garbage collected #8641 as close to the
    original as possible.
  6. Push this branch to your fork on GitHub:
    $ git push origin patchback/backports/3.10/0a88bab39f922e5a1775a4f557a1475d42a5a504/pr-8641
  7. Create a PR, ensure that the CI is green. If it's not — update it so that
    the tests and any other checks pass. This is it!
    Now relax and wait for the maintainers to process your pull request
    when they have some cycles to do reviews. Don't worry — they'll tell you if
    any improvements are necessary when the time comes!
